MARTIN MARTINEZ “TEQUIPACHOLIZTLI” - Invincible Records/DeFox Records 2023

DeFox Records and Invincible Records are proudly to announce the first solo album of Martin Martinez, master and philosopher of ancient, primordial pre-hispanic music from Mexico.

The product it's entitled "Tequipacholiztli". The Album contains ten songs inspired by the ancient and mysterious pre-hispanic mood.

The release will be published in February 20th - 2023. Digital album will be available on every worldwide webstores, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Play, Tidal, Shazam, YouTube Music and many more.

This time, the homonymous multi-instrumentalist presents us with a way of making music with pre-Hispanic instruments combined with Death Metal voices. The result is a mythical, mysterious and cavernous sound of a possible and hypothetical primordial Mexico.

Master creator of Metal bands such as XIPE TOTEC, MIQUIAN, YATROGENY and CONSOLAMENTUM, Martin brings us his first solo album "Tequipacholiztli" (anguish) translated from Nahuatl, the language spoken by the ancient Mexicas, which makes a kind of remembrance of the ancient songs existentialists called “Icnocuicatl” or songs of affliction. These small reflections about the life and death binomial capture the imagination of the creator of Tequipacholiztli, writing to his worldview little phrases of affliction and sorrow. The philosophical and lyrical influence of Cioran and Schopenhauer, as well as the music of Jorge Reyes and Antonio Zepeda are present, in a syncretistic project with pre-Columbian sounds, death metal and a lot of grief...

DeFox Records and Invincible Records are thrilling to announce the dark doom metal band from Mexico called CONSOLAMENTUM their debut album it's entitled "Parfaite".
The release is published in November 15th - 2019.
The digital album available on every worldwide webstores, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Play, Tidal, Shazam...YouTube Music also.

The multi-instrumentalist Martín Martínez arrives with a new project of Stoner Epic Doom Metal called CONSOLAMENTUM, consists of only 2 members, (Phillip Yepez in the voice and Martín Martínez in music ).

Consolamentum is a sacrament applied in the medieval heresy of the Cathars, the Perfect (Parfaite) gave absolution to the dying with the help of the Gospel of St. John and the laying on of hands in the hope that their sins will be forgiven. It was also applied to whoever was to enter Cathar asceticism.

One half of the album is Stoner Metal and the other could be Epic Doom Metal. The riffs are direct and very reminiscent of the old Black Sabbath, Pentagram, Cathedral, Candlemass, Altar Of Oblivion, Dawn, Pÿlon or Trouble.

Like many bands of Doom Metal, they use elements of Primitive Christianity combined with the imagery of affliction, pain, sorrow, death and the absurdity of existence. Influenced by thinkers like Cioran and above all the work of the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer "The World as Will and Representation", where there is a possible escape from pain in redemption, the progressive annihilation of will to live, loneliness, art and asceticism. The meditations of a hermit monk, where only he sees in this world pessimism and despair, based on certain biblical passages, are the lyrical inspiration of Consolamentum.

Line up:

Martin Martinez, All instruments
Phillip Yepez, Vocals
